My mouse is dead. It may not be fixed or replaced for some time, and with a coursework deadline looming closer (tomorrow), I have to be able to do everything without the aid of a mouse. And soon.
So, what does everyone know about using the keyboard to do things?
I'm capable enough to use ALT to get to the menus, and TAB to switch between 'components' on a page, use cursor keys for movement and ALT and TAB together for switching between programs. Besides that, there's little else I know.
Is there a shortcut key for maximising a web page? How do I bring up the rightclick menu if I have a link selected? Can I get to the system tray? Is there a faster way to navigate components on a web page like SR, other than pressing TAB christ knows how many times? How the hell can I go about using PowerPoint to make a presentation?
Heeeeelp......

Good man.
Mozilla is class.
I love the look ahead link feature, that's very useful. Main toolbar isn't full of features that you'll never use either, which is good. I've now chooped off the Personal Toolbar and I have more window space. Hurrah!

Right, I'm off to install Mozilla...
Got anyone you know with a PC you could use? Using just the keyboard is horrible unless you know enough of the shortcuts
SHIFT+F10 Opens a shortcut menu for the selected item (this is the same as right-clicking an object
ALT+SPACE: Displays the main window's System menu (from the System menu, you can restore, move, resize, minimize, maximize, or close the window)
Thats all I can think on at the mo

Just to the left of your right-hand CTRL key. Looks like a right-click menu :D

Doubt it.

Seriously, you use Mozilla 1.2. It has type-find ahead, you just type some of the text of the link and it highlights it. Press F3 to go to the next match, Esc to start again. It's seriously cool, I don't use my mouse to browse any more. Hint, try ctrl+enter.
You're on broadband, it can't hurt to install.

WindowsXP does have a cursor control mode available, try Accessibility in Start->Programs->Accessories.
Use Mozilla.
